Book Description
To the world, Fitzwilliam Darcy has it all. He’s the young master to one of the kingdom’s oldest and wealthiest Norman families. Through his mother, he is related to a powerful line of earls. Beneath the perfect façade lies the truth: he’s the product of his mother’s affair and the heir George Darcy never wanted.
At twenty-eight, Darcy has fought hard to put to rest the pains of the past and earn his place in Society. But can he resist the allure of ending his loneliness with the unsuitable woman who has tugged at his heartstrings? Will he tell her his secret and if he does, will she keep it? Or will someone else from the past destroy everything Darcy has worked for?
Prepare for another page-gripping read from Rose Fairbanks as she unfolds a Darcy and Elizabeth story unlike you have ever read before. For the first time ever, Ms. Fairbanks is offering a new novel release in Kindle Unlimited. The Secrets of Pemberley is available to buy now!
Guest Post with Author Rose Fairbanks - Vignette: Outtake, Elizabeth Bennet’s Diary #6 After the ball
Thanks so much for hosting me, Ceri! The Secrets of Pemberley is told entirely from Mr. Darcy’s perspective. In the book, Elizabeth’s diary becomes important, and as a long-time fan of The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, I decided to do video entries for each of diary entry I’ll be sharing on the blog tour. I hope you enjoy as we get a bit of insight on what Elizabeth Bennet felt after dancing with Darcy at a ball in London.

Rose,
ReplyDeleteMust admit that I've never read a JAFF story with this premise! How inventive!!
I can just imagine Darcy looking over his shoulder on a continuous basis,waiting for some nefarious person to blackmail him with the events surrounding his true parentage.
Looking forward to reading this story. Wishing you the best of luck with it!!
Cheers,Ceri,for hosting!

DeleteRose, maybe you should consider wearing an appropriate Regency era attire and make-up/hairdo when filming the video diary entries to make it authentic to the time period in which your novel takes place. This is just a suggestion.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great suggestion, Luthien.
